You're most likely right about that Monty, especially since it's "limited quantities". It's a Novarossi though, so even their spare parts will be good quality stuff....

I mainly picked one up to give it a try. One of my favorite motors was my O'Donnell SS.21. It was a 3 port, square-stroke (16.45mm) engine. If the Volksmotor is anything like that one, I'll be a happy camper. If it's a complete turd, I won't be out a huge chunk of cash.

Regarding pipes, I'm going to run my O'donnell R2 and header. It did really well on my SS.21, and I don't see any reason it won't do well on a motor with comparable specs. I also had really good results with an OS2060....might be another good one to try.
